This is for those who love using the latest. Android 12 is one of the biggest update ever in the history of Android. It goes in complete visual oracle in terms of everything.
The new system animations, notifications, system control, brand new widgets and themes makes Android 12 a big deal.
As of now, Android 12 is in "Beta" and getting tested in most of the pixel devices. Google has collaborated with some of the Android manufacturers to run Android 12 Beta natively.
How to go about it:
Unlocked bootloader
Device shipped with Android 10+
Support Dynamic Partitions (Project Treble)
To check if your system support Dynamic Partition or not, download and install an application from the play store called 'Treble Information'. Open and scroll down. Locate an option called ‘Dynamic Partition' . Make sure it’s enabled by default. If all the requirements matched with your device, then there’s 100% of chance that your device is capable of running Android 12.
Since this is a DSU method, it will do the magic for us to install Android 12 without damaging the correct system. For those who don’t know what a DSU method is, it stands for ‘Dynamic System Updates’. With Android 10, Google has introduced a feature called a DSU that actually downloads the Android 12 generic system bundled with Google applications and loads into a certain partition. In this way, each time you reboot the phone you can tell the system to boot normally or load Android 12 GSI from a dynamic partition.

This eliminates all the headaches of corrupting the actual Android and helps us to try the latest and greatest of Android.
Let’s now get into the installation of Android 12:
On your phone, go to ‘settings’ and choose ‘About Device'. Tap on the builder number seven times to enable ‘Developers Option'. Once done, look for the developers option under the system settings. Inside the Developers option, you will see an option called ‘DSU loader’, select it and this will show you the available GSI . Select the second option bundled with GSI. As soon as you select the GSI, it will start downloading Android 12 in the background and load into a dynamic partition. Within the notification centre, you will see a progress bar. Wait for sometime until it gets finished with the downloading. Size will be around 3.7GB.
Once finished downloading, you will see two options on the notification bar displayed as ‘Restart’ and ‘Discard’. Do not click Discard since this will delete the newly created partition. To boot into Android 12, tap on restart. Your system will boot into Android 12 from the other partition without damaging your current Android system.
Boom! You’re inside Android 12.
With the persistent notifications, you can switch between your correct Android system and Android 12.
